wwf/P50 z Pom-1L BYj/m Patented July '24, v1951 AUTOMATIC TELEPHONE SYSTEM Winfred T.' Powell, Rochester," N. Y., assigner t0 Stromberg- Carlson New York Company, a, corporation of Application Augilsi;V 2 2, 1947, serial No. 770,119:

This invention relates to switching syste vs and. it more particularly pertains to automatic telephone systems.

One object of the present invention relates to the provision of a subofce, oiiice A for example, working into a main automatic ofiice, office B for example, the suboflce being of thel'all relay type.

Another object of the present invention relates to the provision of first selector repeaters in the suboice for selectingtrunks to the main oilice, with these first selector repeaters being arranged to drop back on certain levels and to hold on certain other levels, to provide for a universal 'numbering system in the network. y

Still another object of the present invention relates to the provision of a combination connector in the suboice, this connector being fthe last choice of a complete group of connectors for use in connection with regular calls and being the firstV choice connector for use by the wire chief or test clerk in 'the main office for vestablishing connections toA lines in the subofce for testing purposes.

Anotherfand related object of the present in` vention relates to the use of a relay type allotter in the subofce for allotting the connector circuits in rotation; with the above`mentioned combination connector being normally blocked from the regular allotting circuit to prevent its use, and thus keep it open for use by the test clerk for testing purposes as long as there are one or more regular connectors of the group available. When all regular connectors are busy, then the combination connector is unblocked and may be `selected for local calls if not in use by the'test clerk.

It is a further objectof the present-,invention to provide an automatic marker transfer circuit, whereby circuit means are effective for transferring from one common marker to ya .reserve common marker in response to a failure of the regular common marker circuit. Forexample, theclregular `common marker is used during the normal operation of the system, then in the event of a failure of either the tens or units portion of which like reference characters designate corthe marker circuit a time delay circuit will be effectiveV for operatingrand locking a switching relay, ywhich in turn transfers all of the marker wires from the regular marker to the reserve marker and sets up an'alarm condition forindicating that the reserve marker is being used in place of the regular marker. Then in the event of a failureof the reserve marker, the time delay circuit functions to transmit a major alarm to the remote office. In the* event that fthe trouble p5 responding parts and in which Figs. 2 to 16, inclusive, when arranged in accordance with the diagram of Fig. 17 and with correspondingly identified lines in alignment, disclose a'suicient amount of the detailed circuits for an understanding of the various features provided by the present invention.

' Fig. 1 is a single line block diagram illustrating' in aconventional manner the layout of the system, 'with the various circuit elements interconnectedin the suboiiice and having access to two-way trunks to the main ofce, these twoway trunks also being accessible to calls originating' in' the main yoffice and'terminating in the illustrated suboice.

For the purpose of simplifying the drawings andl facilitating the` explanation, the various parts and circuits constituting the embodiment ofthe invention have been shown diagrammatically and'certain conventional illustrations have been employed, the drawings having been made more'with the purpose of'making it easy to understand the principles and mode of operation than with the idea of illustrating the specific construction and arrangement of parts that Wouldbe employed in practice. For example, the various'relays and their contacts are illustrated in a conventional manner, with all of the contacts associated with a rparticular relay being indicated as controlled by this relay by means of a dashed line associating the relay coil with its contacts. Reference characters have been applied to the relays and to certain conductors which suggest a circuit function. For example, CO indicates a cut-off relay, LO indicates a lockout relay, ITF indicates a first transfer relay, ZTF indicates a 'second transfer relay, IUF indicates a first units finder relay or conductor, ZUF indicates a ,second finder relay or conductor, etc. Slow release relays are indicated by the usual cross-hatched section'applied to the lower part of the block indicating the relay coil, Slow oper- It is believed that the invention will be best,r

understood by explaining the operation of the various circuits when a call is origin'a'.tedlfroifn'f-"a` particular calling line, for. exampleline No. 11.

minals of the line connector relays illustrated in Fig. 6.

In describing the opration of the present inn vention,`it will bepartic'ula'rly pointed out how the 'circuits function when tl'if'e callingV subscriber dials the first twol digits of a number associated with the main oiiice, for example, office B of Fig. 1 and it will then be Vexplained how the cir- 'cuits function When the first two digits dialed correspondto stations associated with the sub'- oiiic'e, for Aexample omc@ A illustrated in Fig. 1. Referring to Fig. 1, it willbe assumedthat the stationsjconnected to the system of office A are six-digit numbers, the first two digits (74 for example) corresponding to the subofce A, these two digits being dialed from any oiiice in the networkto select the. 'equipment in the subofiice.

The third digit (6 for example) operates the first selector repeater or the incoming selector to the sixth level for selecting aconnector of the group located in the suboice. Level 8 of the incoming selectors and the first selector repeaters are multipled to level 6, so that all connectors may be selected by dialing numberr for the .third digit as well as by dialing N o. 6 for the third digit. This multiple arrangement of levels 6 and 8 is for the purpose of markingor indicating coin box or pay- 'i station lines to the distant operator. For example, paystation lines may all be assigned No., 8 for their third digit and since the 'dialing of this number for the third digit operates the equipment the same as by dialing No. 6 for the third digit, this assignment does nothing more than indicate to the tool or distant operator that the calledor callingline, is a coin box line.

As indicated by the dashed line connecting the last or No. 12 combination connector. in with the group of the first llconnectors, this combination connector is normally selectible from the third level of the incoming selectors only and since this number is known only to the test clerk, it is used for seizing the combination connector for test fpurposes from the test desk. As above mentioned and as indicated in Fig. l, this No. 12 combination connector is used as a regular connector for regular calls only when all of the other eleven connectors are busy, thus keeping the No. 12

combination connector unblocked for use by the test desk as long as thereA is at least one regular connector idle for regular service.

It is believed that the operation of this system Will best be understood by describing the various types of calls. The layout shown in Fig. 1 indicates that there are 100 lines in the .suboflica any one of which may be connected to any idle finder upon the initiation of a call and may be selected by any connector on a terminating call. For convenience in describing the operation of this system, it will be assumed that there are 10 line finders numbered from l to 10 associated with ten corresponding local first selector repeaters, numbered from 16 to 25. The 100 lines operate through a regular marker and a nder allottenfor allotting the`V line-finders for use in extendingi originating connections.. As, indicated by the dashed lines, there is a reserve marker associated with the regular marker, this reserve marker being brought into service only when the Ilregular'marker fails. The first selector repeaters have access tor-ltwo-way trunks leading to oiiice JB1. egtcli@of. 'these two-way trunks terminating in a .two-Way repeater in office B. These two-Way repeaters are selected from level No. '74 in office B=fof1`-li calls -f-r'oin-oiice B to office A and are associatedgwith corresponding incoming selectors in o'i'ce B for handling incoming calls from office Since the features of the present invention relate tothe circuitsin oflice kA and since the tvifo-vvay trunk operation, including the equipment illustrated in ofce, B, isv assumed tobe that in a standard automatic telephone system, which may be of the well-known step-by-step type, the operation ofthe equipment in oiiice B is not shown and .neednot be explained in detail.

ThereA is an incoming selector in-oilice A normally associated' with, eachtwogvvay trunk for handling calls from oiiice B to oflic'e A, these incoming selectors being numbered from lto. 15. The eleven regular connectors are numbered 1 to 11, while the combinationconnector is No. 12. It Will be found from the following description that the numbering ofthesevariousunits asindicated is convenient for explaining'l the operar tion of the various allotter circuits.

AssumingV a call to be originated yfrorlf'n station A, line 11 of Fig. 2, the closure of the line causes the operationof line relay LR o/ver'a circuit which may bel traced from break contact of all trunks busy relay ATB of Fig. 4, conductor ATB, break contact of cut-oil'` relay CO of the line circuit, upper windingof line relay LR, tip line conductor T, substation A, ringV line conductor R, breakcontact of relay CO and lowerwinding of relay LR to The operation of relay LR closes a circuit for-operating the tensl marker relay,k in this example ITLOI because the tens digit ofthe calling linev is No, 1, which extends 4from (fie.) make ycontact Ofrelay LR,v breakcontact of relay CO, common tens. digit conductor No. 1, break contact of switching relayV SW, winding of relay ITLOI break contactfof relay ITLOI conductor 1l, break contact of relay I T1100', through a series circuit` including other ITLO relays (not shown), break vcontact of relay ITLOZ, break contact of relay ITLOI and resistor IRS to Relay ITLOI operates and closes a locking circuit for itself from resistor lRS,-make contact and winding of relay ITLOI and over the remainder ofthe previously described circuit Vto (-4-) at a front contact of relay LR. The operation of relay ITLOI opens up the above described series circuit to thuspreventing the operation of any other I TLO relay while the first operated relay of this groupremains in its loperated condition. It will be observed fromy the vmarker circuit that the operation of any one of these ITLO relays is effective, when a call is originated from aline with a corresponding tens digit, for locking itself operated and for opening up the above described vseries circuit. This provides an interlock for the tens marker relays to prevent more than one being operated at any 0.119 time. c The operation of relay ITLO I closes a circuit for operating lockout relay LAo'f the calling line which extends from (1),'lbreakr contact of relay SW, make contact of relay 'ITLOL' tens digit No; 1 common conductor extending to the line relays vo f all lines having tens digit No. 1, make contact of relay LR, break contact of relay CO and lower winding of relay LO to .1 f

The operation of relay LO now closes a circuit for operating the units lockout relay corresponding to the units' digit of the calling line. Since it is assumed that the units digit of the callingv line is No. l, relay I ULOI is operated over a circuit extending from (-1-) on tens digit No. 1 common conductor (above traced), make contacto relay LR, make contact of relay LO, common units digit No. 1 conductor, break contact of relay SW, winding of the No. 1 units marker relay IULOI, break contact of relay I ULO-I, conductor 12, break contact of relay IULOI), conductor 13, through the series circuit including break 4contacts of other IULO relays (not shown), break contact of relay IULOZ, break contact of relay IULOI and resistor .'RS to `closes a locking circuit for itself from through `resistor ZRS, make contact and winding of relay vIULOI and over the previously described circuit to (-1-) on common units digit No. 1 conductor. The units marker relays are interlocked in a 'manner lsimilar to the tens marker relays to prevent the operation of more than one of these units marker relays at any one time in the event of simultaneous calls.

The operation of relay IULOI (or any other units marker relay) closes a circuit for operating allotter relay IALG of the allotter illustrated in Fig. 4, extending from (-1-), make contact of the IULOI relay, conductor ALG, break contact of guard relay GD of the allotter, break contact of allotter relay IAL and winding of the vallotter' group relay IALG to This operation of re,-

'lay IALG assumes that the i'irst line finder is idle and may thus be allotted for this call'. The operation of relay IALG (or any other ALG relay of the allotter) closes an obvious circuit rfor operating relay GD. Theoperation of relay GD ftransfers the above described circuit for relay IALG from the uppermost break contact of relay IAL to the middle upper break contactl of relay IAL and a make contact of IALG for locking this latter relay operated.

It will be understood that the relay of a line finder is in its operated position as long as this nder is in use, thus extending' the above foperating circuit for the ALG relay to one of these relays which is associated with an idle vline nder; 'relay of an associated line iinder Will be later described. At this point, however, it will be The circuit for operating the AL `being allotted. Furthermore, the locking circuits `for all AL relays, except the last, are completed -through a normally closed break contact of the last allotter relay of the group, thus causing the finder links to be allotted in straight-forward ro- :tation, even though an earlier iinder of the group is released before all ofthe nders of the group become busy. This is because the release of an ,'25 Relay I ULOI earlier finder does not permit the release of itsi'l associated AL relay as long as the last finder of thegroupis not inu'se. y f. n, With relays ITLOIandMIULOI of the marker operated'fand with relayv IALG of the allotter operated, y'all as'previously explained, the line nder relays ofthe No. 1 line iinder are operated for. selecting the calling'line, in'this example tens finder relay TFI and units finder relay UFI be'- causeV the., tens and units digits of the calling line are both No. 1. vThe circuit for operating relay TFI of the allotted line, iinder may be traced `froml (41;) ,break contact ofrelay SW, make contact of relay vI'I'LOIy conductor ITF, make contact of allotter'relay IALG and winding of relay TFI to The circuit for operating units vrinderrelayl UFI may be traced from break Contact' "offrelay SW, make contact of relay IULOI,' conductor IUF,v` make contact of relay IAL'G and winding of relay UFI to The operation of the tens and units finder relays (in thisY example relays TFI and UFI) extends tli'e calling line to the first selector repeater associateddwfith the .line iinder used for this call.

The operaton of relay SAP `closes an obvious circuit for operatingrelay ECP," thislatter relay being for yuse particularly in connection with reverting'y calls, `as will'.,later.-bev explained. The relay XP connects (-1-) tostick conductor STK for locking the .operated line finder-relays in their operated positions. Theoperation of relay SAP applies (-1) `to link sleeve conductor LS for operating relay MCO of the'calling` line. IThis circuit may be traced from (-1) loniconductor LS, make contacts of re- .lays UFI- and TFI', finderf sleeve conductor FS `and winding of relay-'CO vto The operation of relay CO (since relay `LO is already operated) removesthebattery Ibridge of the linefcircuit from-the calling-linafthus effectingthe release of-relayfIR;The-operation of relay CO opens .up and' releases relay ITLO-Lwhile the releasej'o'f relay LR opens upand releasesrelayy I'ULOI.

The operation of'V relay SAP` energglizes. the polarizing windinggof polar relay POLso that this relay is in condition for responding; to reverse battery when the called party answers. 4Relay POL of course does not operate;whendts'lower winding alone is energized; The operation' of relay XP applies to allotter conductor AL for operating relay IAL of'the a1lotter.,'this.c 1 *cuit* being traced from conductor through 'a make contact ofY the operatedTFrelay of' the line nder and lower windingqof relay ILAL to Theoperation of' relay IAL closes the above, de,- scribedjlockingcircuit for its upper. winding. `The operation of relay IAL opens up the operating andlocking circuits ofrelay IALG; for releasing this relay, whichin turn opens upan'd releases relay GD.

The release of the marker relays ITLOI and IULOI restores themarker circuit to normal :for use on a succeedingcall andthe release of' relay GD of the-allotter permits allottinglthe next link for the next succeeding call;

Referring to the rst selector repeater circuit, the operation ofrelay SA `closes 'acircuit'for operating. the priming relay CX vof the associated counting chain.
